Arne Slot watched exciting winger in action and Liverpool transfer is now ON | OneFootball

Arne Slot watched an exciting winger in action this week and his transfer to Liverpool could now be on.

At this moment in time, the club is focused on bringing in Alexander Isak in order to provide much needed depth in the forward line.

However, even with the additions of Hugo Ekitike and Florian Wirtz, the Reds probably need at least one more attacker.

That's because the likes of Darwin Nunez and Luis Diaz have already departed. Meanwhile, it's now expected that Federico Chiesa will also leave for pastures new before the window shuts close.

One new addition in Isak is not enough to fill the void in the squad. Rio Ngumoha has shown he is ready for action in the first team but Liverpool cannot simply rely on him alone.

That's why the Daily Mail are now reporting that Liverpool won't sanction a move for Chiesa unless they bring in a replacement for him.

Replacements for the Italian are going to be tricky to find. Bradley Barcola would be an outstanding option as another addition alongside Isak but it remains to be seen whether Liverpool could get that deal over the line, or whether it's even feasible to do.

On the other hand, a back-up option seems more likely. Someone who won't cost a fortune but who can fill a void and give Slot an extra weapon in attack.

The perfect choice might be someone who Slot has recently watched in action. Speaking in his press conference on Thursday morning ahead of Liverpool's Premier League opener against Bournemouth, Slot confirmed that he watched Feyenoord against Fenerbahce this week.

"I saw this week Fenerbahce vs Feyenoord and I saw a lot of moments where players were really, really smart," Slot said.

The Liverpool head coach was referring to players winning fouls in particular as the 'dirty' side of the game which he suggested in his press conference he wants his players to do more often.

It's interesting that he mentioned this in particular because there was one player who stood out in this area in the Feyenoord game this week, and he's been linked with a move to Liverpool this year.

Anis Hadj-Moussa of Feyenoord drew the most fouls (3) for his team, making a mockery of the Fenerbahce players at times with his silky feet.

As we said, he's been reported to be a target for Liverpool and a move might just make sense.

Moussa has made 17 goal contributions in 46 matches for Feyenoord. He's young, at only 23-years-old and he can play both on the right and left-wing.

Crucially, he's an excellent dribbler, averaging over 8 dribblers per 90 since arriving at Feyenoord, which again would give the Reds an extra bit of depth after losing Diaz.

As a back-up option to replace Chiesa, Moussa could be an ideal addition. With Slot's comments it's definitely one to keep an eye on. Especially as it seems like Liverpool aren't just intending to bring Isak in this summer but another attacker.

With that in mind, this transfer could now very well be on.
